Where should I consult if I am caught in the Philippines?

You can contact the China Embassy in the Philippines for help.

The first thing that comes to mind is to ask the Philippine Embassy in China for help, even if it is to find someone who can help you communicate in English. In addition, you can contact the authorities, and they will send people to the detention center to handle the incident. If the formalities are in line, you may be able to come out in one day. After all, visa extension or labor problems can be fined and then released. At this time, it will be more convenient to go through the formalities of returning to China, and you can continue to stay in the Philippines within the validity period of your visa.

Under normal circumstances, the Philippines will arrest foreigners because personal behavior is illegal in the Philippines, such as working illegally, that is, working in the Philippines without a work visa. There are also illegal residents, expired visas, or smuggled in. Because there is no official visa, you will be arrested, there will be conflicts with the locals, and you will be arrested by the Philippine Immigration Bureau. After being arrested, there will be an interrogation process. If you speak English, explain clearly and investigate clearly, and you can come out in a few days according to the process. If you are in a foreign language and have no friends, you may be detained for a longer time, and the best result is that you can be sent back to China. Otherwise, you will be locked up for a longer time.
